Isaiah alluded to Satan in 14:

12 How you have fallen from heaven, O day star, son of the dawn! You have been cut down to the ground, O destroyer of nations. 13 You said in your heart: “I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God. I will sit on the mount of assembly, in the far reaches of the north.d 14 I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.”
Pride was Satan's downfall.

Ezekiel 28:

15 From the day you were created you were blameless in your ways— until wickedness was found in you. 16 By the vastness of your trade, you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I drove you in disgrace from the mountain of God, and I banished you, O guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones. 17 Your heart grew proud of your beauty; you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor; so I cast you to the earth; I made you a spectacle before kings.
Satan resorted to sinful violence to accomplish his goals.

Jude 1:

6 And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their proper dwelling—these he has kept in darkness, bound with everlasting chains for judgment on the great Day.
Evil angels were not content with their God-given positions. They wanted more.

What made angels rebel?

Pride and greed.

Peace to all,

To me, in logic, the angels were told of God's plan to create love, and flesh and place mankind in heaven above the angels and the angels were to help God in mankind's salvation through The Christ, the Body of God. Some refused authority and 2/3? accepted His plan for created and fulfilled eternal Love. The angels that refused had Pride and Greed? The angels also had a choice, just like all mankind. The angels knew of the coming power of flesh as all mankind united in the souls of all beings, angels and saints and martyrs and old covenant saved and all from The Bosom of Abraham and Dismas and Longinus, in The New Heaven and Earth, Eden.

The fall of Satan was created choice through the created love of Adam and Eve and the death of Satan is through the Power of the Holy Spirit person in the Person of The Christ given up as "The Ghost" from the cross shared as on in being in union with all mankind together with The Father and The Son glorified and transfigured. To me salvation of the Body of The Christ in US is "The Gift", Eternal Fulfilled Love, from the Created and Mortal and Corrupt Flesh and spirit in the soul of the beings, Adam and Eve. Before Eve was created, Adam was told as Spirit and Authority and all life on earth, not to eat of the tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil in the Garden. Adam became all authority and all spirit and life. Adam had access to the tree of life as a mortal being and will live forever in the mortal flesh with the Gifts from God. Adam named all of the animals and everything in the Garden and had everything on earth to live forever.

And God saw Adam as a lonely being. So he placed Adam in a deep sleep, taking the rib, Greek for side, of half of the being and separated Adam into two equal and powerful beings, Adam remains Authority and Eve becomes Life and Spirit. And Adam told Eve what God said, not to eat of the tree of knowledge or Eve would surely die. So the serpent told Eve, surly she would not die right away, but she would know of God's goodness. The taste of life and the fruit was too good. And all of the pleasures of life and spirit are hers to share with Adam to know of life's treasures and spirit. All of the goodness of textures and flavors and the seasons of earthly life in the abundance if life and spirit in the mortal dying flesh was known now to Eve. Adam watched Eve's choice and knew, she now was defiled in the flesh and spirit and she now away from the Tree of Life, only to die in the flesh. Now Adam had a choice, to live forever with Authority, as himself alone, but no life and spirit without Eve. Adams only sin was to defy authority and give it up, and only for the Created mortal and dying of the flesh Love of Eve. Adam's only sin was to choose to die of the mortal flesh only to be with the Love of Eve created through the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.

Through Baptism and Communion and the flesh of The Body of The Christ we become from mortal and corrupt to immortal and incorruptible and become glorified and transfigured through the intelligence in the Holy Spirit will of The Creator, God, The Father, becoming re-imaged to manifest as eternal, unfailing in The Body of God.

To me, the logic of love is created and love through choice is fulfilled in the Arc of The New Covenant, The New Eve and Mother of God through the Power of The Person of The Holy Spirit.

All through the Power of the Holy Spirit will of The Creator, God, The Father is mortal dying of the flesh and spirit in the soul of Adam and Eve fulfilled by The Son, eternal love and life and spirit of the Body in fulfilled eternal living Love in The New Eve.

Peace always,
Stephen Andrew
